Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but what is the final answer guys? My little Carbon Fiber adventure smoked the brand new Bearing/bushing in the swingarm, got noticable sideways slop now, thinking about just going to Trac Dynamics swingarm, why not - losing thousands of dollars over the whole episode anyways,eh

I think I remember those may use the same lame bushings. Might wanna check first.

No they use bearings in both sides of swingarm. But, no way I'm waiting 4-5 months , at least, for a part promised in 4-5 weeks,eh. Probably just rebuild the stock unit
